[Spridgets] A quieter electric fuel pump found

[Dean Hedin]

Hold it up!   I just discovered that the pressure from this pump is too high.
I noticed seepage from the front carb after doing some test drives.

My workaround solution was to put a 18 ohm high wattage resistor in series with the pump.
This reduced the rpm and the pressure (and made it even quieter).  

However, I realize this is not a solution that most can implement safely, so I cannot 
recommend this pump for Spridget use.

Came tonight.  I'll put it in tomorrow and see how it goes.

This is the best price I could find for this type of pump.
The big auto part chains don't seem carry anything like this,.
